    Explanation:

    Let t be the time after they meet

    Distance1 = Speed * Time = 80 * t = 80t
    Distance2 = Speed * Time = 95 * t = 95t
    As the distance gap between both trains is 180 kms
    Therefore, we can say that:
    95t - 80t = 180
    15t = 180
    t = 12 seconds
    Total Distance, (95+80) t = 175 * 12 (t = 12)
    Distance = 2100 kms
    Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
